Our Environmental responsibility
Today, we place great importance on sustainable development in the daily management of our residence, aiming to reduce the carbon footprint of a hotel night.
This engagement translates into different actions such as :
Water management :
- In order to limit water consumption, we have implemented a programme of not changing linen and not using the cleaning service
- All our taps are equipped with a constant water flow regulator/mixer and our shower heads are hydro-economical
- Automatic taps in the public toilets of the residence
- Monthly monitoring of water consumption
- We favour water-saving sanitary installations
- Regular regulatory water analyses are carried out
Energy consumption :
- All our appartments are equipped with a contactor that only works with the client's key.
- After each service and when the guests leave, we make sure that the windows are closed and that the light cards are removed from their place
- The light installation in the appartments is equipped with low consumption LED bulbs.
- The refrigerators and electrical equipment in our appartments are of low consumption
- All our plumbing is heat-insulated, preventing heat and energy loss
- Our fan convectors are equipped with a low consumption electronic regulation (Centralized Technical Management)
- Switches on the windows and window doors of our appartments: open-window detector allowing the automatic shutdown of the air conditioning or heating system
- We have carried out an energy performance diagnosis (DPE)
- We conduct energy audits
- The relamping of the whole building (interior and exterior) has been carried out by using LED or low
consumption equipment
- Regular maintenance programmes for the heating systems have been put in place
- The heating is switched off during long periods of non-occupation
